Do It Today: Overcome Procrastination, Improve Productivity, and Achieve More Meaningful Things

That’s why I like to live like I’m immortal. Because
when you live forever…
You have all the time in the world to build
something.
You can make mistakes and learn from them.
There’s no pressure to make things happen fast.
You treat people with respect because other people
will also be around forever.
This small tweak in my mindset has helped me to take a
different view on life. I’m not afraid to look 10 or 20 years
ahead. That helps me to make better decisions TODAY. For
example, I’d rather save my money or invest it instead of
spending it because I know that “future Darius” will benefit
from that.
“But how about the present, Darius?”
Well, I talked about being satisfied, right? Odd enough, I’m
more satisfied when I SAVE my money. Or when I eat
healthy food or work out every day.
When I think about this idea, I find it fascinating how well it
works. We all know we’re going to die (I recently even wrote
an article about it). That’s a good and bad thing.
Good because it gives us urgency.
Bad because we lose sight of the big picture.
How do you live? Like a mortal or immortal person?
Whatever it is, I hope you’re 
satisfied
with your life. Because
at the end of the day, that’s what matters most.

The Power Of Compounding: You
Can Achieve Anything, If You Stop
Trying To Do Everything
Do you have a long list of goals, desires, and wants for your
life? Do you want to learn more? Earn more? Improve your
skills? Get the most out of your relationships? Live better?
All those things are good. Life is about moving forward and
making consistent progress. However, there’s one important
thing about all this working, hustling, striving, and achieving
more: You can’t do everything at the same time.
That’s common sense, right? You only have so much time
and energy. So if you take on too many things, you end up
spread too thin. Instead, it’s much more effective to focus
your effort on one thing.
